Achor

Achor is the Cyrenean name for the famous demonic figure of Satan’s right hand, Beelzebub, also known as the "Prince of Devils" or simply "The Devil". He was a notorious character in Middle Eastern mythology.

Belief in Achor’s character was fuelled by the fact that Philistines hated flies—they believed that everything was created by the Almighty except flies, which were created by Satan. It was said that God’s empire is like a family of bees who work, bear arms (a sting) and care for their offspring, while Satan's empire is like flies; flies are homeless, do not work, are unarmed and do not care for their offspring.
